SIGA Announces U.S. Government Procurement Orders of Approximately $138 Million for Oral and IV TPOXX®
Exercise of Procurement Options of Approximately $113 Million for Oral TPOXX and Approximately $25 Million for IV TPOXX under Current Contract reflects continuing global action to enhance smallpox preparedness
NEW YORK, July 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SIGA Technologies, Inc. (SIGA) (NASDAQ: SIGA), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company, today announced that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services exercised procurement options for the delivery of approximately $113 million worth of oral TPOXX® treatment courses and approximately $25 million worth of IV TPOXX® treatment courses.

“Building on the orders SIGA received for TPOXX from 13 international customers and the U.S. Department of Defense in 2022, these most recent procurement orders further highlight that many global leaders in public heath recognize the importance of orthopoxvirus preparedness and the need to take action to keep people safe,” said Phil Gomez, CEO of SIGA. “We are pleased that we are able to consistently meet demand for oral TPOXX, which is driving substantial and increasingly diversified global revenue opportunities at SIGA.”

SIGA expects to fully deliver approximately $113 million of oral TPOXX under this order in 2023 and expects to start delivering IV TPOXX under this order in 2024. Prior to delivery of IV TPOXX under this order, SIGA will be focused on fulfilling delivery obligations under a prior IV TPOXX order.

This project has been supported in whole or in part with federal funds from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response; Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and Strategic National Stockpile, under Contract No. 75A50118C00019.

CHRISTINA HUTSON, CDC [00:20:10]
Because of these findings, from the start of the outbreak, we have been monitoring the F13L gene within sequenced isolates. At this time, CDC has analyzed sequence data for more than 4,000 specimens from across the United States, of which 11 were found to have genetic changes in the F13L gene during those sequence surveillance efforts.
When tested within the lab, using a cell culture based sensitivity assay, those 11 isolates were sensitive to tecovirimat, showing no evidence of resistance.
We’re currently working on a health advisory related, in part, to development of tecovirimat resistance virus during prolonged tecovirimat treatment. We wanted to let everyone know that this would be coming out soon, and there’ll be more information for providers about the potential for tecovirimat resistance.

-And we hope to have that HAN out by the middle of next week-

CDC has altered their view and comments about the effectiveness of TPOXX. Their website, updated on Oct 18, now reads:

"While monkeypox symptoms can resolve on their own, treatment for orthopoxviruses is available and can provide relief and decrease disease severity for persons with monkeypox. The treatment is tecovirimat (TPOXX), available as a pill or intravenous (IV) infusion. At this time, TPOXX is available through state and territorial health departments and CDC."

The monkeypox virus is mutating. Are scientists worried


If health officials detect an uptick in the number of virus samples carrying these mutations, that could be a possible signal that they are helping the virus to spread.

The good news is that, although the monkeypox virus continues to evolve, no mutations have affected the part of its genome that encodes a protein targeted by tecovirimat, an antiviral drug being tested for use against monkeypox in humans.

Vanderbilt researchers are developing an artificial intelligence algorithm that can precisely track and count monkeypox lesions. They are also spearheading the effort to develop lesion classification guidelines, which will be used when evaluating the potential use of tecovirimat, an antiviral that is FDA-approved against smallpox, as a therapy for monkeypox.

"We do expect it to be available soon Tecovirimat. And CDC is currently developing an expanded access IND protocol to help facilitate the use of this product as a treatment for monkeypox as well," the CDC's Brett Petersen told doctors at the AMA webinar.

According to federal data, nearly 2,000 patients diagnosed with monkeypox have been treated with TPOXX so far, nearly all of them men. Only 24 women have been confirmed to have received TPOXX to treat monkeypox infections.

Ten of the patients in the study reported a complete resolution of their monkeypox lesions one week after starting treatment. The majority of the patients took TPOXX for 14 days. However, the study did not include a control group, limiting the researchers’ ability to measure effectiveness.
